Not long ago I dragged a couple people into Parkside Candies because I'd never been there before.

Joe was one of those people. Boy, was he impressed.

Then we went to St. Catharine's for a Danko Jones show. This is the view from the parking garage, but not a view of Danko Jones. To sound more confusing, I'm not sure who took this picture. Joe and I shared cameras.

The Mansion Tavern is touted as the "oldest licensed bar in Canada." That must mean that somewhere in Canada there's an UNlicensed bar that's even older.

Danko taunts one of the freeloaders in the parking ramp. One would get revenge by throwing a bucket of water on the band. Thanks for taking away our encore, jerks.

In conclusion, that was my eighth Danko Jones show. And the fourth that ended at Denny's.

Taking these pictures on the Scajaquada is almost as hard as spelling "Scajaquada."







Jesse "The Devil" Hughes concurs.

Remember September?

'Cuz I don't! My computer crashed a month ago, and with three different jobs I haven't had the time to catch up. Let's back way up. . . . Here's Mayor Byron Brown introducing Sloan at Thursday at the Square. The guy on the left is his own ventriloquist!

Sloan, rockin'

Enough is enough! I have had it with these motherf**king snakes at the motherf**king coffeehouse!

About a week later, I got into the Darwin Martin House for free. I used to have this Tree of Life design on a tee-shirt when I was twelve. Maybe I've revealed too much.

One of the best ways to frame a photo is to take a picture entirely of frames.

A honkin' big mirror

Reconstruction of the other wing. We got to climb up the ladder, whoo!

A model of what the house will look like. It will be extremely costly to build a glass case that big.

The landscaping is supposed to be done in about a week. Who wants to take bets?

Mollie and Jake check out the greenhouse.

Stagnant water + electrical wires = fun in the basement

Why Mississauga is a pluton

J-Oe and I went to the Jell-O Museum in Leroy, New York. Before you ask a silly question like "Why?" I think you should look of this picture of a brain-shaped Jell-O mold.

Who is Marge, and why are kids allowed to put Jell-O all over her?

SPOON!

Some lovely items at the gift shop. Why isn't Jell-O for sale?

Apparently, Bill Cosby's visit was a Big Deal.

BUT THE FUN DOESN'T STOP THERE. Joe and I got us some hot poon at the House of Poon in Rochester. And no, they don't serve Tang.

How much does it cost to get Poon? About ten bucks or so.

POON, right here. On the table.

After seeing Little Miss Sunshine at Little Theater in Rochester, we took a little walk around downtown.

August 11th was also Scott's birthday. Happy birthday, Scott. I bought you some poo.

Speaking of poo, Joe looked like crap.

Pictures From Last Month

A new display at the Albright-Knox

Security got after me for taking a picture of this. Those people are watching a belly dancer just off-camera.

While leaving the museum I got stuck in traffic during a 5K run.

Here's the scene from Buffalo's Italian Festival, taken at an angle reminiscent of the Penguin's lair.

How can a funeral home branch out to a second location that's right next door?

I went back to Hertel one night to see a movie.

Seen outside the free Shooter Jennings show at downtown Buffalo.

This guy rocked; the photo doesn't do him justice.

Scott wanted a picture of this so he could figure out what it was (an early Game Genie). I thought I'd end this post on a down note.
